- 4 February, 2012 The Center's employees were awarded the 2012 President's Grant
Center "Nanotechnology in Electronics" was established in National Research University of Electronic Technology MIET in 2005. In 1987 in MIET one of the first Russian scanning tunnel microscopes has been built for technological experiments (AS number 1,471,232 on 14/07/87). In 1989 using this microscope, the quantization of conductivity in quasi-vertical conductors at room temperature was shown. Designed here in 1993, tunnel technological microscope TTM-2 was able to obtain atomic resolution of different structures. It has been used to create the unique elements of nanoelectronics based on polymer, metal and carbon nanowires. Center is currently engaged in studies of the properties of carbon nanotubes, graphene nanoelectronic elements and graphene-based structures.
